Google must not be very happy with me.

    Google must have it out for me, a few days ago I got the email saying that my adsense account was banned for invalid clicks. I had been very aware of the TOS and doing my best at following all of them, I tried to appeal, no luck. Oh well life goes on.

    Just a few minutes a go I got an email from Google AdWords letting me know that my adwords account was suspended. The reason was I had a trademark infringement in the headline of one of my ads. The thing that blew my mind, was that none of my ads were active. They were all paused, and hadn't been used in about a month.

    I don't get it. Did I piss them off somehow?

    No, I just think you need to read TOS carefully before you jump in with google.

    Thank You

    I think you need to read my post again, I have been very careful when reading TOS, I am not a noob in using either adsense or adwords. I have NEVER had problems till this week.

    Well it’s very hard to determine exactly what the problem is. First even though your ads weren’t active they still went against TOS, therefore they decided to cancel your account. I think they did this because they had already canceled your Adsense account.

    Thats what I was guessing. Just seems a little overkill to me. But hey, who am I to tell Google how to run things. :)

    I think I am done with google. Will probably use Gmail, and if they come out with some new stuff... I'll probably use that too. But for now I am done with AdSense and AdWords.
